That is a good point. TechCrunch had an article up about it as well. I
guess if you have too many friends, you need to control the flow.

Yeah to some people it's not a problem at all. But let's take someone like Leo Laporte for example. He might want to only be able to chat with a certain friends list, not all 5000 of his friends.

But I see what you mean, it doesn't mean much to the average user.

That does sound like a problem. Although they may not have implemented all
features yet. If you really want to block someone you could always
de-friend them.

There's also a major problem with its privacy features. You can't block anyone, or a certain friends list. Major flaw, in my opinion.
